Many countries, including Spain and the United States, do not have a national stadium designated as such; instead matches are rotated throughout the country.

A list of national stadiums follows:

Kennedy Memorial Stadium, RFK Stadium in the country's capital, Washington, D.C., more than any other venue in the country, which led to suggestions that RFK Memorial was the ''de facto'' national stadium prior to its 2019 closure.Bill Simmons "Every big American soccer game should be played in RFK."
